Nintendo and Masahiro Sakurai have put out yet another screenshot from Super Smash Bros. Wii U today, but this one’s a bit special. The image shows what appears to be a brand new stage featuring Pilotwings.

Sakurai unfortunately didn’t say much on Miiverse. Along with the image, he simply wrote: “This island looks familiar!”

Hmmm…

Platinum Games has worked on several projects in the past, but Bayonetta 2 marks the studio’s first sequel. Although this does bring about a certain amount of pressure, producer Atsushi Inaba says he and the rest of his team “welcome the challenge to outdo the first one.”

As reported in the September 2013 issue of GamesMaster:

“Come to think about it, this is the first sequel that we’re working on. And we’re happy to have the opportunity to make any game, but… we welcome the challenge to outdo the first one.”

Bayonetta 2 will be out on Wii U sometime next year.

Thanks to joclo for the tip.

When Circle Entertainment presented its 2013 lineup several months ago, the company included a 3DS eShop game called “Wakedas”. We haven’t seen or heard anything about it, but a release appears to be on the horizon.

Writing on Twitter, Circle Entertainment said that Wakedas has been approved by Nintendo of America. Its launch is likely coming “soon”.

Just a short while ago, Nintendo published its 2013 annual report. It’s mostly filled with a lot of pretty pictures (find them above, because they’re neat) and sales data, but it also features a message from president Satoru Iwata.

Iwata reiterated Nintendo’s “basic strategy” relating to “the expansion of the gaming population, which is to encourage as many people in the world as possible, regardless of age, gender or gaming experience, to embrace and enjoy playing video games.”

Later in his message, Iwata commented on Nintendo’s financial situation. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, he hopes that the company will be able to once again achieve “Nintendo-like” profits. Nintendo intends to continue creating “brand-new and unique proposals, and make efforts for the growth of the home entertainment industry with a mission that is to pleasantly surprise people and put smiles on the faces of everyone Nintendo touches.”

You can find Iwata’s full note below.
